All Star Knockout unveiled as latest YG Masters smash hit
Second Northern Lights title in industry-leading distribution partnership programme
Yggdrasil, the innovative online gaming solutions provider, has released All Star Knockout in association with partner studio Northern Lights, the latest in the supplier’s market-leading global content distribution initiative, YG Masters.
The 5×4 reel video slot features 20 paylines and an innovative Award Board, which activates the All Star Knockout Bonus.
The Award Board has five boxes with spots for eight stars to collect as they randomly land on the reels. When a player starts a game session, 12 bonus stars are randomly awarded and populate the board. If one or more box is filled with stars, the bonus round is triggered.
During the bonus feature, players are given an initial five free spins, with an additional two free spins awarded for every box of the board that is filled during the round. When the feature is triggered, a multiplier is selected and applies to all wins.
Andrew Goodale, CEO of Northern Lights, said: “All Star Knockout is our latest creation via the YG Masters initiative and offers a colourful and exciting take on classic fruit machine symbols. With an innovative award board bonusing system, players can easily track their progress as they strive to land the lucrative free spins feature.
“Our partnership with Yggdrasil has been hugely beneficial for us and assisted us in further growing our business. We are very excited about what the future holds.”
Stuart McCarthy, Head of Partner Strategy & Sourcing at Yggdrasil, said: “All Star Knockout is an excellent addition to our the YG Masters games portfolio and another testament to the success of this element of our business which gives us fresh and innovative content from the world’s best independent studios.
“Our YG Masters programme continues to go from strength-to-strength and the launch of our Publishing division will only cement its status as one of the leading development platforms in the industry.”
As part of the introduction of its new Publishing division earlier this year, Yggdrasil has significantly updated its market leading YG Masters programme, which was first launched in 2018. The key upgrade driver is the introduction of GATI (Game Adaptation Tools & Interface) which offers a framework to build online games and is a disruptor to the existing iGaming industry.
Partners will be able to set up and run their own YG Masters across the globe with their own studio partners based on Yggdrasil’s advanced technology, framework, systems and tools. This offers clients an opportunity beyond the traditional aggregation structure, giving them unlimited potential to scale their business and realise rapid organic growth.

Company reveals a substantial rise in player value after casinos add sports betting
DATA.BET, a leading sportsbook solution supplier, reports notable performance improvements among casino operators that introduced sports betting through the company’s plug-and-play integration.
According to internal statistics across multiple clients, adding a betting vertical resulted in players who use both casino and sports betting, generating up to a 4x increase in player lifetime value (LTV) compared to their previous casino-only behavior, while the same betting-active segment delivered an average 12% additional revenue without additional player acquisition. Operators also recorded higher retention and engagement levels, with every second casino player placing at least one sports bet after the sportsbook launch.
The clients have noticed these results after integrating a Single Page Application (iFrame), which takes around one week. While DATA.BET manages all betting-related operations and configurations — both at launch and ongoing — casino operators instantly gain access to a full suite of sports, esports, and virtual sports events, allowing them to focus on marketing and player acquisition. To enhance flexibility and engagement, the iFrame supports full customization: from color themes and layouts to dynamic banners, promo blocks, configurable bonuses, and margin/odds control.
The company designed the SEO-friendly solution to ensure that search engine crawlers can easily read and index the content, thereby improving discoverability, page load times, and the overall quality of metadata, which contributes to higher SEO rankings and better visibility in organic search results.
Yurii Berest, CEO of DATA.BET, commented: “For many casinos, betting is more than diversification – it helps operators to maximize the potential of their existing audience and improve the efficiency of traffic monetization. As the average stake in sports is traditionally higher than in slots, operators experience instant revenue growth while retaining and extending player lifetime value. It is a powerful model of sustainable growth that helps to boost not only the current player base but also attract new audience”.
As the market continues shifting toward universal gambling ecosystems, DATA.BET’s solution demonstrates that sports betting drives measurable financial impact for casino operators, turning existing audiences into long-term revenue drivers.
